"Juleen was extremely personable and professional. She made me feel very welcome on my arrival. My room was very clean and inviting. The only thing is that I'm not absolutely sure about is whether aside from picking up a towel or two in the bathroom the housekeepers did much in my room. Perhaps I had to communicate a desire for housekeeping. Anyway, just a question mark that hovers over my stay. Breakfast was perfectly fine. Aside from one day, when they ran out of spoons, everything I needed for breakfast was available. I was also satisfied with the fitness equipment, which consists of 3 exercise bikes, a variety of barbells and a bench. Overall, a very nice stay. I'll be back."
